Then I spent the morning sorting out problems that occurred over the weekend, before spending time with a student who had chest pains and breathing difficulties. In short, displaying the symptoms of a minor heart attack. Thankfully the ambulance was there a few minutes later and as it turned out, he had a severe panic attack rather than anything more serious. That's my first happy thought (that he hadn't had a heart attack).

Then, after lunch, I spent the afternoon trying to catch up with what I should have done this morning. Hopefully I'll be able to catch up tomorrow.

My second happy thought? I am on my way home and looking forward to a very nice, if unhealthy, chicken in cheese sauce.

I think you deserve your chicken & cheese ;)

We did not go out last night & had a perfect night with a Brandy & coke & some good Traditional Country Music. Nice to relax & listen to the words of songs.

Do you ever play it as a Fiddle with Bluegrass Music or Western Swing Music. I love Fiddle & pedal Steel in a Country Band

Had to go to a Japanese site. I guess 'cos most the text is in Japanese* apart from the video title they missed it. :)

For the curious

*If you don't have the extended far eastern character fonts loaded the text comes out as small boxes with the code in them.

Did no characters at all, just good old fashioned stand-up. Though if you closed your eyes you could picture Brian Damage or one of the Balowski boys.

Cheers
